“…In general, the adhesion of ice on the smooth hydrophobic coatings is lower than that on hydrophilic ones. , Polysiloxane, a kind of hydrophobic polymer with low-modulus, was universally employed in icephobic surfaces. ,− ,,,,− Except for environmentally benign, widely available with ease and noncorrosive, PDMS-involved materials are likely to be tuned with the modulus by tailoring the cross-link density . Interestingly, soft solvent-free PDMS elastomers in one-step with chain entanglement-free design exhibited their excellent softness and tailored stiffness, and large deformation easily occurred under only slight external forces. , In addition, as an organic–inorganic hybrid nanoscaled molecule, polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) is of great interest. , According to our previous studies, POSS with eight-cornered groups and low surface energy was able to migrate to the submicron/nanoscaled icephobic surfaces and form rough wavy structures, , or to bring about microphase separation of POSS-containing fluorosilicone acrylate copolymers, endowing excellent hydrophobicity and water-repellency for anti-icing. − …”
